They both possessed the same glossy curls, decided chins, and fine noses. Their gazes admired each other as if they were staring into a vanity mirror.

The Thanksgiving table: Farseer edition
Dutiful: I wanted to propose a toast. *lifts glass* Here is to our family. May we remember all the challenges that came our way, and that we prevailed each time, united, as Farseers.
Everyone: *Lifts glasses with the toast*
Beloved: Well said, Dutiful, I would also like to propose a toast.
Chade: *grumbles under his breath*
Shine: Quiet
Beloved: To the dragons. May we live side by side with them for the years to come. And to the Elderlings, who will tend to them. May we welcome their return with open arms.
Everyone: *lifts their glasses*
Chade: I'm going to propose a toast now, too.
Lant: Oh, for the love of Eda
Hap: *sits up straight and leans forward while idly moving his fingers on an invisible lute, eyes hungry*
Fitz: Chade...
Chade: *ignoring everyone* May we raise our glasses to the old Farseer kings and queens. My brother Shrewd among them. May we remember them and the times they reigned. Peacefully. Without dragons.
Everyone: Here we go.
Chade: What? What? One of you tell me how life is *so* much better with dragons back.
Thick: I think they're neat.
Chade: Not you. Someone tell me how life is better. Go on.
Fitz: *holds staring contest with Chade*
Beloved: Chade. They bring bal-
Chade: If you say balance, I'm not kidding when I say I'll launch myself across the table at you.
Dutiful: But, Grand-Uncle, they really are beautiful creatures.
Elliania: Truly. And Icefyre and Tintaglia saved my people.
Nettle: Oh, Tintaglia isn't all as she's cracked up to be. *smirks*
Chade: Thank you, Nettle. That reminds me. Remember when we went to the Outislands? We almost died? *points at Beloved* YOU died! For the sake of dragons!
Fitz: Chade... *starts to stand up*
Chade: No! I've had it, Fitz. Everyone is praising Fool for everything he's done. What about me!?
Bee: Yeah. What about you?
Beloved: Hush, Bee.
Kettricken: *rubbing her temples* Can I just have the stuffing?
Shine: *to Bee* Don't talk to my father like that!
Bee: Or what? You'll get your brother to stop me?
Everyone: *voices are raising*
Riddle: Can I have the brandy?
Fitz: I have it.
Riddle: Can I have it?
Fitz: No.
Beloved: Let's all just calm down. What happened on the Outislands and to me is in the past.
Thick: Not really.
Dutiful: Thick, stop.
Thick: What? Fitz and Beloved always make Skill music together.
Chade: *psh* That's what they call it now?
Everyone: *screaming at each other*
Fitz: 'Ight, I'mma head out.

"They always believed they could see disaster coming and avoid it," Beloved said. "Change the future to save themselves. They knew something of the Destroyer, but I doubt they expected a small girl; I doubt they understood they would bring it all on themselves." He added, "And the actions of the Unexpected Son were, as always, unexpected. Fitz had a way of tumbling all their pieces from the gameboard. For a time longer, we may be in their blind spot. Fitz bought this time for us. We must not waste it."
Fitz had, I thought to myself. Not Fitz has. Never again. I felt Per's grip on my hand tighten and knew that we shared that thought. We followed them out into a sunny day. I blinked incredulously. I felt it had been a year since I left my cell. Deep grass surrounded the neglected entry to the tunnel and no clear trail led away from it. The tasselled heads of the tall glasses glistened with dew. We could clearly see the trampled grass where the Whites and then Prilkop had gone down toward the town.
"Let me take your arm," Spark said to Beloved. "We need to move quickly."
"I can see. As I once did. Perfectly."
"How?" Lant demanded.
"Fitz," he said quietly. He stepped clear of the brambles and looked around him as if the world were a wonder. "As he was dying. He did a last healing. On me. I suspect it took every last bit of strength he had." He looked down at me and added, "I did not ask him for that. I did not want it. But he knew he was trapped. He chose to spend what life he had left on me."
I looked up at him. He was changed from the first time I had seen him. He was thinner, almost gaunt. The battering his face had taken was almost gone. And he stood differently. It came to me slowly. Nothing hurt inside him any more.

I’ll never get over how the Fitz and the Fool trilogy was like “guess what Shade has kids now and they’re both fucking idiots”.

Chade fallstar?
First impression: Creepy old man. Super sad that he’s basically Fitz’s only friend.
Impression now: Chade is what Fitz could have turned out to be. He was in the same situation and was treated the same way. I never really ended up liking Chade, but I did pity him, and I enjoyed him as a character and a mirror to Fitz even though I didn’t like him as a person.
Favorite moment: When he teams up with Burrich to save Fitz after he was killed. Also, when he sent his kids to live with Fitz because he knew Fitz would take care of them (if only he had had a better sense of tact and timing, and actually TOLD FITZ WHAT WAS GOING ON).
Idea for a story: Chade lectures Shine for the horrible way she treated Fitz but he does it in his usual Chade way and it ends up with Shine in a tirade. Chade is forced to confront and address all the horrible things that happened to her and they actually build a relationship instead of Chade just staying in the background. Everyone in Buckkeep is shaking in their boots because that is the combination from Hell.
Chade and Huntswoman Laurel?? how tf???? explanation and backstory PLEASE
Unpopular opinion: I think it’s a pretty general consensus that we don’t like Chade. Probably the only unpopular opinion I can think of is that we should cut him a LITTLE (very little) bit of slack because he plays an important purpose in the stories.
Favorite relationship: Chade and King Shrewd, I also loved it any time he and Burrich came into contact.
Favorite headcanon: We saw how desperate he was about Lant and Shine, but never to their faces. I’d like to think he cared for Fitz just as much as he cared about them and had a similar moment worried about Fitz.

Ice encased my heart. I gestured at the assassin with my knife, moving him farther away from the cradle. I moved with him, keeping the same distance. Whatever was in the packet, I would not chance opening it near Bee. I brought it to a small table touched by firelight.
It was a little packet of good paper. I sliced the side carefully with my blade, then tipped it. A very fine chain slid out of it first. I tapped it and the rest emerged. "A very pretty necklace. And expensive, I'd hazard." I held up the chain. Firelight glinted red from it. "It's the Farseer buck, in silver. But he has his head lowered to charge. Interesting." I watched the boy's face as it dangled from his hand. Did he know what it was? The sigil of FitzChivalry Farseer, the long-dead bastard of the royal family.
He didn't. "It's a gift for her. From Lord Chade Fallstar."
"Of course it is." My voice was flat. I returned to his garments, hooked my toe under the heap, and kicked them to him. "You can get dressed."
"And my things?" the youngster asked sullenly. He spoke over his shoulder as he tugged on his underthings. I stooped to the floor, and the tools of his trade disappeared up my sleeve. I heard the rustle of fabric as he pulled on his shirt and trousers.
"What things?" I asked pleasantly. "Your boots and stockings? There on the floor. Put them on. Then get out of this room. And stay out of this wing of my home. Or I'll kill you."
"I wasn't sent to do the baby harm. Only to see it, to leave the gift, and to report back what I'd seen. Lord Chade warned her that you'd catch me but Lady Rosemary insisted. It was a test. One I've failed."
"Failed twice, I assume. I doubt they gave you permission to name their names to anyone."

Assassin's fate preview spoiler thoughts
So ... Lant is quickly continuing to become my hero. 10/10 would read a trilogy about him. And I feel like if the Fool knew who his mom was, they would be very interested in his friendship.
